Ray Dolin, 39, was sitting on the shoulder of Highway 2 outside of Glasgow, Montana Saturday when a man in a maroon pickup pulled up, shot him, and drove away. It was just before 6pm.

Dolin, a West Virginian, was hitchhiking across the U.S. for a memoir he’s writing called “The Kindness of America.” He was able to flag down a passer-by who drove him to Frances Mahon Deaconess Hospital in Glasgow where he’s now recovering. Authorities tracked down the pickup and arrested the driver, 52-year-old Charles Lloyd Danielson III of Washington, about four hours after the shooting.

The U.S. has many shotcomings and countless failures. For example I would argue that our support of abortion is on par with some of the things the Germans were doing in terms of decidig who is human and who is sub-human. But I think if you look at us in comparison to other world powers who had our level of power in relation to the rest of the world,( admittedly a low bar) We're not all that bad. What do you think the Assyrians would have done with our nukes? Or Ghengas Kahn?
